So we noticed a bird's nest in the tree in our back yard, right at the very top, can only really see it from directly below. Issue being this thing is at LEAST two feet across... this is one huge friggin nest

Any thoughts on what the hell we can expect to be living in that thing? I have no interest in climbing the tree to have an eagle or some shit go for my eyes <_<

Eagles build nests about that size.

Is it a flat basket nest or a round enclosed nest?

Sounds like you've got dragons. Not really big dragons, perhaps just small-to-middling sized dragons. But dragons nonetheless.

Appears to be an open bowl, hard to tell since it is only visible from almost directly below it. Seems to be made pretty heavily out of full tree leaves too.

It's a bear nest, obviously. Don't go outdoors, bears will eat you.

Never mind getting eaten, what about when bears do what bears are famous for doing in the woods?

Be a bad day to be outside without an umbrella.

South-eastern Canada, nest is in the tree in my backyard, about 25 feet above the ground. Middle of a sizable residential area, no farmland or whatnot around, just roads and homes.

Could also be a vulture.... We seem to be having a lot of vultures here lately.

Right now im leaning toward Red-shouldered hawk as its the only Endemic Bird for your region that has nests like that.
